garish

there is not much of interest at convenience stores, stocked mostly with a lot of candy in various forms...very occasionally their extended hours do offer a last-ditch opportunity..still, it's a garish world to wade through

Nikon D90
Nikkor 16-85mm - 1/40s f/7.1 at 26.0mm iso1000 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

Nicely documented. You're a braver man than I am - I'd be worried about getting hassled for taking the photo.

Such a common scene - never stopped to think about it, but your shot does make one stop and wonder about our garish world !

My favorite spot is on the right...the slushy machines! A collage of brand names and labels to the max. V

Its a great study of elements and that bike wheel peering into the frame is fascinating…. V

All that stuff and nothing to eat...nicely framed using the lines!

Looks like that bicycle could be very useful last thing at night if you have missed the last bus! Well seen.

It is certainly jam packed and colorful. Great capture of the interior of this small store. V.

Is that ET's bike?

Modern merchandising is designed to lure you in and confuse.

An interesting study in color and merchandising. If one were to enter the store, one would not notice the vivid colors and the placement of the goods. Only in an image can one appreciate the complexity of the arrangement and the conscious coloring of the products. Not much is left to chance here. "V"

I am continually fascinated by photography's ability to transform the mundane into art. F

A rather interesting capture of this stopping off place...

But then they're truly convenient which are open 24/7 and also offer a wide range of services. including ATMs and digital camera printings..V

This image points out well the world we live in. Makes you think

Can see your point in this well placed shot. The color array in this place is blinding.... now where is that Coors light at? V

..and with beer, but expensive, I don´t like this stores because the take advantage! Its like here in Germany with gas stations the circumvent buisness hours and charge to much!
Helen Betts23-Jul-2014 07:24
It's a great interior capture, but yes, I'd have to agree with your title. I hadn't realized just how garish until looking at this!
